Michell prefers to keep the centre closed rather than put
up with the pressure from ♗lack's minor pieces.
♘evertheless, this decision means that the light-squared
bishop is about to be exchanged off, and that piece is
often crucial for attack and defence. Nb4 17. Ne3 Nxd3
18. Qxd3 g6 19. Bd2 Qb6 20. g4 a5 21. Nf1 Instead 21.b4
should have been played to block the queenside advance. b4
This allows ♗lack to assume control over the a6-f1
diagonal, activating the light squared bishop. 22. Bh6
Rfe8 23. Ng3 Ba6 24. Qd2 Nd7 25. Kh2 Qb5 26. Re3 White
needs to match ♗lack on the c-file, but that proves
impossible: 26.♖ec1 ♘c5, followed by a hop into d3, causes
huge problems. Qc4 27. Rd1 Qc2 A significant moment. ♔han
makes a pragmatic choice to exchange queens, removing any
danger from the kingside while maintaining positional
control over the queenside. Capturing the pawn was possible
but after 27...♕xa2 28.♘g5 and potentially ♖f3 White can
stir up trouble. Why put oneself under pressure? In short:
this was an excellent practical decision. ♔han conducts the
rest of the game with masterly control, patiently
manoeuvering his minor pieces into their best positions
before applying the finishing touch. -Daniel ♔ing 28. Ne1 Qxd2 29. Rxd2

We have seen in many games how ♔han likes to castle on the opposite wing to his opponent, but this is taking matters to an extreme. He can't be bothered to remove his bishop from attack and carries on regardless... his opponent, also hell-bent on attacking, ignores it and begins his own assault on the other side of the board. b5 14.Bf4 Nd4 15.Nxd4 cxd4 16.Bf3 e5 17.Bh2 Rb8 18.c5 Bb7 19.b4 Rfc8 20.g4 Ne6 21.Kb1 a5 22.a3 axb4 23.axb4 Bd5 24.Kb2 Bxc5 ♗lack is unafraid to give a piece to maintain the initiative- and it is completely justified. If ♔han were given time to stabilise his king position, then push on the kingside again, the game would be wide open. This way the action turns decisively to towards the queenside. 25.bxc5 b4 26.Ra1 Nxc5 27.Nxc5 Rxc5 28.Be4 Rc3 29.Ra5 Rb3+ 30.Ka1 Ra8 31.Rxa8+ Bxa8 32.Qa2 ?

unfamiliar with the (Evans) gambit, then this is a sensible

Winter has done his homework. I am sure that he knew of
the game Flohr-Euwe, Carlsbad 1932, which had continued
11.♗xb4 ♕xb4+ 12.♕d2 ♕xd2+ 13.♔xd2 ♔e7 and ♗lack was very
comfortable. ♔han improves on White's play. 11. Rb1 Bxd2+
12. Qxd2 Qxd2+ 13. Kxd2 O-O If ♗lack had played 13...♔e7,
they would have reached the same position as Flohr-Euwe
with White a tempo up... 14. Rhc1 Rd8 15. Ke3 Na5 16. Rc7

21. Rxc7 ♔han has won the strategic battle. Winter has a
tough choice: defend passively with 21...♖f8; push the
knight with 21...f6 but expose the seventh rank; or play
for activity. He chooses the latter, though in fact none of
them would have solved ♗lack's problems. -Daniel ♔ing Rc8 22. Rxf7 Rc3+
